The Influence Of Bio-Inhibitor On The Corrosion Resistance Of Reinforced Concrete Beams Containing Mswi-Ba As A Partial Sand Replacement, Jamal Khatib, Israa Amer, Ghanem Hassan, Adel Elkordi

BAU Journal - Science and Technology

In this paper, the corrosion behavior of reinforced concrete beams containing municipal solid waste incineration bottom ash (MSWI-BA) as a partial sand replacement and Ceratonia siliqua extract as a green corrosion inhibitor was investigated. Four mixes were prepared: (0 and 20% replacement of sand by MSWI-BA with and without Ceratonia siliqua extract). Tests conducted were UPV, compressive strength, split tensile strength, and elastic modulus. RC beams were prepared for determining the flexural performance. Eight beams were casted. Four beams were exposed to accelerated corrosion test and four beams were kept at room temperature. It was found that the compressive strength, …
